Notes

"William Buckholts, son of William H. Buckholts and Betsy
Brashears, was born 1818. He married Matilda Elizabeth Null
(dau of James C Null, niece of John Null who married William's
sister Sarah), Sept 16 1841 in Sumter Co, AL. They had 12 or 13
children:

The iffy child(ren) are Joseph Marshall are Salina Rosanna. I
have only seen them listed once as descendants. The others are
pretty well substantiated by descendants of their own or family
recollections mentioning them or, in the case of Robert E. Lee
Buckholts, a tombstone in Boggy Depot, OK, from his death in
1882, listing his parents.

I have a fair amount on the above family, particularly the
descendants of the oldest daughter, Lurena, who married Rodham
Tulloss Jones, and had twelve children. Also some information
on the families of James Madison Buckholts, and John M.
Buckholts.

The family of William Buckholts and Matilda Null moved to MS.
James, for example, was born in Jackson. They family lived in
Madison Co, MS, and a couple of other counties bordering
Madison. The Nulls lived there, too."

Persons Name: "Lewis Burwell Williams born in Fredericksburg,
Virginia, January 27, 1802, son of William Clayton Williams and
Alice Burwell, his wife. When he was six years of age his
parents removed to Richmond, where he received his education and
studied law, on being admitted to the bar, he engaged in
practice in Culpeper county, in 1825 removing to Orange county,
where he resided during the remainder of his life. In 1831 he
was appointed commonwealth's attorney, which office he occupied,
by successive reappointments and elections, until his death, in
1880--a period of forty-nine years.

He was a member of the Virginia legislature in 1831. He was an
anti-secession candidate for the convention of 1861, and was
defeated by Jeremiah Morton, a pronounced secessionist, but when
secession was an accomplished fact, he became an ardent
supporter of the southern cause, and all his four sons entered
the Confederate army."
